Store Adjustments in Sidecar File in Same Folder

What problem do you see this solving?

When I change file locations for photos or if my catalog fails and I need to use a backup the adjustments for certain folders are usually lost due to changes in the catalog. It would also be nice if importing photos with edits into a different catalog was as streamlined as Lightroom where the software detects the edit file and automatically applies the adjustment. Unless I'm mistaken, there is nothing like this in CaptureOne at the moment and I think it'll be a massive improvement to redundancy. I don't want to use Sessions for this as it's the management of my entire photo catalog and not single jobs.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

At the time of writing this... a couple days ago... last week? Multiple times.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

Just being more careful to not corrupt a catalog or not do anything that would break it.
